sue and betti both ski straight down a hill, both starting from rest. sue weighs more than betti. neglecting friction and wind resistance, which skier will be moving the fastest at the bottom of the hill?

Sagot :

Answer:

They are both moving at the same speed since they will have the same acceleration

F = M a    describes acceleration

M a = M g sin theta    where theta is the slope

One can easily see that

a = g sin theta   and the weight does not enter into the equation
